[meme] Character religions!
snowbogan
Babs is - well it's most simple to say 'agnostic'. She knows various deities exist in her universe, one of her teammates was a literal angel, but she doesn't align herself with any of them.
snowbogan
She doesn't particularly like the idea of trusting in a higher being and letting them guide her path. Her fate is her own, thank you.
snowbogan
That doesn't mean she finds people who ARE religious weak or silly, though. She chose the name Oracle - she appreciates the power of faith.
snowbogan
(Obviously, if she ever did worship anyone in particular, it would be Athena.)
snowbogan
Jean has a...delicate relationship with religion.
snowbogan
She believes, but she's not sure how she feels about it.
snowbogan
As time goes on, though, she'll get a firmer grip on it, and she'll become - not really strongly religious, but strongly spiritual.
snowbogan
Denomination-wise, Jean is generally theorised to be Episcopalian, and that works for me.
snowbogan
Cass doesn't...
snowbogan
I mean she gets it in vague terms, she knows what a cross means, but that's pretty much it.
snowbogan
She never really thought that much about it, because - what matters is here, and now, and what you're doing with it
snowbogan
Though she began to consider it a lot more after, you know, Stephanie's spirit saved her from drowning.
snowbogan
So she believes in life after death, sort of. Beyond that - she's never had much opportunity to explore.
snowbogan
I'm not sure which would appeal to her, really.
snowbogan
Taoism, maybe?

Cass might be interested in the Baha'i faith!
☼ zinnia
I don't know a ton about it, so I can't say for certain, but it seems like something that might be up her alley o/
snowbogan
Ooooh
☼ zinnia
granted it's a more "traditional" religion, since it's more rooted in Abrahamic beliefs, but IIRC there's some East Asian influence as well
☼ zinnia
Cass could also look into Taize if you think she'd lean towards a blend of Abrahamic/East Asian religion c: I'm no religion major, but I've been to Taize services and adored them
☼ zinnia
(hi sorry can you tell I spend most of my time in interfaith work...)

Jean is a god. Or a demigod, anyway.
snowbogan
Don't apologise this is great!
snowbogan
HAH YEAH that will definitely have an influence.
